[mythtv-users] Consistently able to crash mythfrontend

[Matt F]

Hi Mark


Just saw your post and haven't used gnome for a while so I though I 
would give it a try. My install is Suse 9.2, Gnome 2.6, connecting to a 
remote backend. I also have an Nvidia card using the Nvidia drivers. 
Mythtv installed from source, backend is also a frontend running Fedora 
core 3 installed with Jarrods instructions and rpm's. I ran mythtv in a 
window but basically full screen. I'm not sure how this compares to your 
install but it runs fine for me. I've had it going for a couple of 
minutes now. If your not already doing so, try running it windowed. 
Since your switching off it doesn't matter if its really full screen or 
not.
